On the manufacturer's website, the product is classified in the category "Lingerie". That now I think no mistake, because this use fits the material. I think the design is designed primarily for use as underpants under football shorts. Then, the roughness does not matter, and the logo emblazoned at the only visible place. Even under normal everyday clothing is good pants as underwear, even if one may ask, what advantage has the cyclists form then.
Of course you can also wear it as a top pants, but then you have to be aware that the substance is thin and stretching is translucent. So rather then choose the larger size and darker in color, preferably with an equally dark pants. When running shorts the product is unsuitable because of the rough surface. Smooth polyamide / elastane blends are better.
NOTE: Sizes run between European and American sizes. Those who like to glance like, taking the larger, if you like it compact, the smaller size. From a compression but no speech can also be.
